7. Lifefood Platter at Lifefood Gourmet
Raw food is not for everyone, we know, but chef John Schott's food at Lifefood Gourmet may turn skeptics into converts. If nothing else, with the Lifefood platter -- a combination of Mexican nachos with guacamole and pumpkin meat, nori crips and zucchini rolls -- he proves that raw food can be tasty and satisfying. A refreshing combination of textures and flavors, it'll dispel any notion that raw food is bland and you may find yourself wanting more.
